Treats chickens DON'T Like

[AmyBella]

Mine would not eat the lettuce I brought them this morning. Go figure!

From my "vast"

experience of chickenkeeping (1 month this weekend) I have determined my girls have no use for Cheerios.

If they are softened in plain yogurt they get eaten, but I get the stinkeye for spoiling their yogurt.

I'm almost afraid to try the watermelon BYCers rave about.
I cannnot deal with any more Chicken Rejection.

And can anyone here explain why anything taken from my hand is sooooo much better than if they have to pick it up themselves?

Mine don't like mint, cilantro, basil or any of the aromatic herbs.

Yep.. same here. They did not like the bananas! That is the only thing so far. We've done yogurt, strawberries, watermelon & tomatoes.

Mine will eat anything including the playdough my three year old daughter was breaking into little pieces and feeding to them.

They love bread the most I think.

Mine won't eat cabbage. They LOVE yogurt, watermelon, cukes, tomatos, corn, cottage cheese, any kind of melon and fresh grass clippings.

Mine love plain yogurt, sunflower seeds, brown rice, grapes, cherries and cooked cauliflower. They also love shrimp, crab and sardines. My Australorps love snails, slugs and worms and my Buff Orpingtons seem to like more of the "people" food. All of them will only eat greens if I give to them while they're locked in their run. If they are roaming around in our yard I guess they get all the greens they want because they won't take any from me.
